OBJECTIVE:To establish microbial limit test for Compound clindamycin hydrochloride gel and to carry out the validation of three methods.METHODS:According to the appendices volumeⅡof Chinese Pharmacopeia(edition 2005),microbial limit test which contained routine test,medium dilution method and membrane-filter method was adopted to validate Compound clindamycin hydrochloride gel.Recoveries of three methods were compared to make sure the suitable validation method.RESULTS:In routine test,recovery of trial bacteria was lower than 70%and controlled bacteria couldn't be found out.In medium di-lution method,recovery of trial bacteria was higher than 70%and still lower than the recovery of diluents.In membrane-filter method,recovery of trial bacteria was higher than 90%,and controlled bacteria grew well.Membrane-filter method could eliminate inhibition effect of Compound clindamycin hydrochloride gel on bacteria.CONCLUSION:Membrane-filter method is effective and practical for microbial limit test of Compound clindamycin hydrochloride gel.

To study the secondary metabolites of a marine-derived fungus Ascotricha sp. ZJ-M-5, several chromatographic methods including macroporous resin, silica gel, ODS and Sephadex LH-20 were used to isolate the compounds, and their structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical properties and spectroscopic methods. Ten compounds were obtained and identified as ascotrichic acid B (1), (3R)-6-hydroxymellein (2), beta-carboline (3), (22E, 24R)-ergosta-7, 22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-triol (4), (22E, 24R)-ergosta-7, 22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta, 9alpha-tetraol (5), cyclo (Leu-Pro) (6), cyclo (Ile-Leu) (7), cyclo (Pro-Val) (8), cyclo (Pro-Gly) (9), and cyclo (Hpro-Ala) (10). Among them, compound 1 is a new 3, 4-seco-lanostane triterpenoid which has been isolated from the filamentous fungi for the first time, and compounds 2-10 are firstly isolated from Ascotricha genus.

Objective To discuss the role of teachers in the integrated PBL teaching of pediatrics in the light of the investigation of students after PBL teaching.Method The multidisciplinary integrated PBL course established by the Department of Pediatrics of Chongqing Medical University has been implemented for more than two years in the teaching of the five year program in the Department of clinical medicine (pediatric direction).From September 28,2016 to October 25th,the researchers conducted a survey of 26 undergraduate students in the college who received PBL teaching at the professional probation stage.After the end of each PBL class,the teaching evaluation questionnaire recommended by Fudan University and Qian Ruizhe was distributed through the network teaching platform of Chongqing Medical University.The questionnaire was retrieved by students without a name,and the survey was carried out 3 times.The data of the questionnaire were summarized with Excel 2007.Result 77 questionnaires were issued and 77 were recovered,with a recovery rate of 100％.In the multidisciplinary integrated PBL class,94.8％-97.4％ students gave high score evaluation,and all the evaluation of teachers reached "excellent" level.In response to open-ended questions,students believed that teachers in teaching could inspire students to think positively,encourage students to express different views,create a mutually trusted environment for students,and cultivate students' interpersonal communication,communication and cooperation ability.Conclusion In pediatric multidisciplinary integrated PBL teaching,teachers should teach students correct learning methods,judge each student's knowledge and thinking level,and individualize teaching for each student's problems and characteristics.

The aim of this work is to discover the inhibitory mechanism of tea peptides and to analyse the affinities between the peptides and the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) as well as the stability of the complexes using in vitro and in silico methods. Four peptide sequences identified from tea, namely peptides I, II, III, and IV, were used to examine ACE inhibition and kinetics. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of thrombospond in Type I domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) and M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) in primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) and to explore the relationship between their antibody levels and prognosis. METHODS: Renal tissues in 128 patients with membranous nephropathy in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were collected from February 2015 to August 2017, including 108 patients with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN group) and 20 patients with secondary membranous nephropathy (SMN) (SMN group). Indirect immunofluorescence method was used to detect the expression of PLA2R antigen in kidney tissues,and the glomerular expression of THSD7A antigen was examined by immunohistochemistry and indirect immunofluorescence. The serum levels of anti-PLA2R antibodies and THSD7A antibodies were also detected by ELISA. According to the results of PMN examination,the patients were also divided into a PLA2R-related membranous nephropathy group and a THSD7A-related membranous nephropathy group. RESULTS: The positive rate of PLA2R in the renal tissues in the PMN group was higher than that in the SMN group (78% in the PMN group, 35% in the SMN group, <0.01),while the positive rate of anti-PLA2R antibody in the PMN group was also higher than that in the SMN group (50% in the PMN group, 25% in the SMN group, <0.05).The serum level of anti-PLA2R antibody was positively correlated with 24 h urine protein (=0.254, <0.05) and negatively correlated with serum albumin (=-0.236, <0.05). The expression of THSD7A was positive in glomeruli in 7 cases of the PMN group (6%) by immuno-histochemistry, and which was positive in 1case of the SMN group (5%).The serum levels of anti-THSD7A antibody in the PMN group were higher than those in the SMN group [(0.49±0.26) pg/mL in the PMN group,(0.34±0.27) pg/mL in the SMN group, <0.05]. There was no difference in the clinical characteristics between the PLA2R-related membranous nephropathy group and the THSD7A-related membranous nephropathy group. CONCLUSIONS PLA2R and THSD7A are the target antigen of PMN, and the associated autoantibodies are helpful for the differential diagnosis of PMN. The anti-PLA2R antibody levels can reflect the severity of the disease and evaluate the effect of treatment. The incidence of THSD7A membranous nephropathy is low, and monitoring the serum anti-THSD7A antibody levels can assess patients' condition and predict disease outcome.

As a novel and promising antitumor target, AXL plays an important role in tumor growth, metastasis, immunosuppression and drug resistance of various malignancies, which has attracted extensive research interest in recent years. In this study, by employing the structure-based drug design and bioisosterism strategies, we designed and synthesized in total 54 novel AXL inhibitors featuring a fused-pyrazolone carboxamide scaffold, of which up to 20 compounds exhibited excellent AXL kinase and BaF3/TEL-AXL cell viability inhibitions. Notably, compound 59 showed a desirable AXL kinase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀: 3.5 nmol/L) as well as good kinase selectivity, and it effectively blocked the cellular AXL signaling. In turn, compound 59 could potently inhibit BaF3/TEL-AXL cell viability (IC₅₀: 1.5 nmol/L) and significantly suppress GAS6/AXL-mediated cancer cell invasion, migration and wound healing at the nanomolar level. More importantly, compound 59 oral administration showed good pharmacokinetic profile and in vivo antitumor efficiency, in which we observed significant AXL phosphorylation suppression, and its antitumor efficacy at 20 mg/kg (qd) was comparable to that of BGB324 at 50 mg/kg (bid), the most advanced AXL inhibitor. Taken together, this work provided a valuable lead compound as a potential AXL inhibitor for the further antitumor drug development.
